I was born one of a family of eight in Saginaw. We were loud and more often talked 'at' each other than 'to' each other, a skill which is perfect for radio.
After graduating from CMU, I worked at a station up north that had as much wattage as a refrigerator light bulb. I went from there to working on a Mexican radio station, where I was eventually kicked out for being an illegal immigrant.
My radio travels then took me to the Lakeshore at 104.5 WSNX and then on to Baltimore, where I enjoyed a modicum of success, which in this business is rewarded with a shove out the door. So I roamed back here to my home state and WFGR, having missed the ability to surf in fresh water.
In my spare time, I enjoy hurting myself with homemade CrossFit workouts and flinging paint on canvas and calling it 'art'. I also have three daughters, who think I teach college for a living.

At 36 years old, Nick Baumgartner of Iron River is considered elderly in the world of teenaged Olympic snowboarders, but a fourth place finish in South Korea reveals a heart the size of the Grand Canyon.

Winter Storm Mateo (can we stop with this naming thing already?) will bring another significant snow event to West Michigan, and originally it looked like GR was in line for 3-6 inches. That could go up a bit.
